Regulatory Impact Assessments Bill (20 Oct 2023)

Justin Madders: ...we noted that there had been some improvement in the quality of Impact Assessments (IA) provided with secondary legislation. Unfortunately, this improvement has not survived the dual challenges of Brexit and the pandemic, during which time the speed of legislating meant that corners were cut. We had hoped that the return to more normal working would provide an opportunity not just to...

Automotive Industry (12 Jul 2023)

Justin Madders: ...of miles away when they could be in vehicles made just down the road at Vauxhall Motors. It does not have to be that way. The automotive sector has had more than its fair share of challenges due to Brexit, as we have heard, but let us use some of those so-called new-found freedoms to bring us some benefits as well. A proper strategy on charging points is needed, but, just as with the...

Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: After Clause 16 - Environmental protection (21 Jun 2023)

Justin Madders: ...can also recommend that the proposal should not be proceeded with, but, in the true spirit of taking back control, this House will get the final say on that. Is this not what the true spirit of Brexit was really about: the democratically elected Members of this House asserting influence and passing our laws? I am sure that we will hear, once again, the fallacious arguments that because...

Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: After Clause 16 - Environmental protection (12 Jun 2023)

Justin Madders: ...that such a debate is necessary, but this does secure a degree of scrutiny over ministerial decisions. It also hands at least some power back to Parliament, which was, of course, for some, what Brexit was all about.

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform Bill): New Clause 12 - Assessment of impact on governance (29 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: ...achieve something on a timescale that is driven entirely by political rather than practical considerations. For the umpteenth time, completing this task by the end of next year is not going to stop Brexit, because we have already left the European Union. Let me deal with each component of the new clause. The first part is about cost. We were told that leaving the EU would reduce our costs...

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: Clause 22 - Commencement, Transitional and savings (29 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: ...and Wales for certain categories of good. We need to understand how the Government intend to address that. Are the processes in the UK Government and devolved Administrations common frameworks post Brexit intended to apply to the Bill? If so, it is not clear from the Bill. Perhaps the Minister can reassure us on that. We know from evidence from the Welsh Government that they have concerns...

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: Schedule 3 - Regulations: procedure (29 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: ...an alarming pace.” We have already made our position clear. We do not believe that Parliament’s role should be reduced. No doubt Government Members will tell us that that is our way of stopping Brexit. Of course it is not because we have already left the EU—that is a fact. Our position is about how we determine Parliament’s role in shaping the future of this country. One of the...

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: Clause 1 - Sunset of EU-derived subordinate legislation and retained direct EU legislation (22 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: ...unfair dismissal, introduced employment tribunal fees and cut down on consultation requirements for collective redundancies. The track record is a mixed one to say the least. A number of prominent Brexiteers have talked extensively about the need to reduce red tape and do away with employment rights, which I will discuss shortly. If, as the right hon. Member says, there is no intention to...

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: Clause 1 - Sunset of EU-derived subordinate legislation and retained direct EU legislation (22 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: ...protections and important consumer rights are left in the gift of Ministers. I think we have made it clear that we do not think that is acceptable. The refrain of those who advocated for Brexit was that we should take back control—“we” meaning the people we represent, not Ministers sitting in rooms on their own, answerable to nobody, and under no requirement to explain their actions...

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: Clause 1 - Sunset of EU-derived subordinate legislation and retained direct EU legislation (22 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: ...justify the power to extend the sunset having to reside only in Westminster when it deals with matters of devolved competence? Can she also explain what the process will be in Government with the Brexit Opportunities Minister, when appointed, for identifying the laws that are within devolved competence, and the procedure to be followed for resolving any disputes about ownership of those...

Public Bill Committee: Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill: Clause 1 - Sunset of EU-derived subordinate legislation and retained direct EU legislation (22 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: I am grateful for the Minister’s references to my special day, which will now be recorded forever more. She mentioned the Brexit opportunities team. Who is the Minister responsible for that team?

Written Answers — Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: EU Law (21 Nov 2022)

Justin Madders: To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to the Answer of 7 November 2022 to Question 72238 on Brexit, what the special legal status of retained EU law is that he refers to in his Answer.

Northern Ireland: Northern Ireland Protocol Negotiations (22 Jun 2022)

Justin Madders: The Secretary of State will be aware that the Northern Ireland Business Brexit Working Group, which represents 14 industries, released a statement last week stating that “there are significant concerns about the introduction of an all-encompassing dual regulatory regime.” I understand that dairy farmers have similar concerns. Having heard about those issues, can the Secretary of State...

Written Answers — Department for Transport: Aviation ( 1 Mar 2022)

Justin Madders: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the ability of the airline sector to meet summer season demand in the context of post-Brexit restrictions.

Business, Energy and Industrial strategy: Employment Legislation (22 Feb 2022)

Justin Madders: I wonder if the Minister has done any stakeholder engagement with the new Minister for Brexit Opportunities and Government Efficiency, the right hon. Member for North East Somerset (Mr Rees-Mogg). I ask that question because in The Times at the weekend the new Minister said: “Sometimes the employer would think they need more protection from the employee.” That view is wrong. Too many...

Public Bill Committee: Health and Care Bill: Clause 120 - International healthcare arrangements (26 Oct 2021)

Justin Madders: ...be reminded that on a number of occasions in the past 18 months the Department has not produced those impact assessments when regulations have been produced. As he has clearly become a full-blooded Brexiteer, given his comments today, I am minded to press the amendment to a vote because it is about Parliament taking back control.

Public Bill Committee: Health and Care Bill: Clause 120 - International healthcare arrangements (26 Oct 2021)

Justin Madders: ...that Act the perhaps more snappily titled Healthcare (International Arrangements) Act 2019, which is what the original Bill was called until Parliament, in its wisdom, decided that as this was a Brexit Bill, it was better to have it deal with matters associated purely with Brexit, and not to slip in wider powers almost wholly unrelated to our decision to leave the EU. The clause gives the...

Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: Automotive Sector: Fiscal Support ( 9 Feb 2021)

Justin Madders: ...will know, a decision is due soon on whether a new vehicle will be built at Vauxhall Motors in Ellesmere Port. Does he agree that if the Government are truly ambitious about investment in the post-Brexit world, securing green growth and the levelling-up agenda, they will do everything in their power to make sure that we get the right decision for the Ellesmere Port plant?

Exiting the European Union (Agriculture) (10 Nov 2020)

Justin Madders: ...field of food safety and hygiene. As we know, the instrument amends or revokes 16 of the 17 EU exit statutory instruments that were hurried through in the weeks ahead of the original 29 March 2019 Brexit deadline. As the Minister said, the intention is to avoid disruption to food controls, which is critical for the approximately 220,000 businesses active in the agrifood sector. As such,...

Social Mobility (12 Feb 2020)

Justin Madders: ...of progress. We need an overarching cross-departmental Government strategy, which is sadly lacking at the moment. I have long held the view that many of the frustrations and factors that led to the Brexit vote are connected to declining social mobility. That was reinforced by findings published a few weeks ago by the Social Mobility Commission, whose survey showed that 78% of people in...
